Gertrud Maria Mell

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gertrud Maria Mell (15 August 1947 – 30 June 2016), as a singer sometimes simply Maria Mell,[1] was a Swedish composer, musician and sea captain. She worked as a music teacher, served as a church organist and cantor, and directed four choirs. Mell began composing in 1961, creating four symphonies, various classical pieces as well as pop music.[2][3]

Biography

Born on 15 August 1947 in Ed, Dalsland, in south-western Sweden, Gertrud Maria Mell was the daughter of Torsten Mell, a station inspector, and Iris Olofson. From 1965 to 1967, she studied instrumentation and conducting at the Lund Musik Conservatory, graduating as an organist and cantor in 1967 and as a church choir director in 1968. In addition to music, she also studied seafaring, qualifying as a skipper (1971), ship's mechanic (1979) and as a sea captain (1981).[2]

Mell was an organist in Töftedal Church (1967–1976) as well as a music teacher in Ed (1969–1971) and in Bengtsfors (1972–1976). During that period she also gave private lessons in piano and voice. From 1976, she worked as a sailor on a Transatlantic ship, serving as a captain in 1982. In 1982, she was appointed head musician at the Pater Noster Church in Gothenburg.[2]

Active as a conductor from 1961, she wrote four symphonies, a string quartet, chamber music, choral works, organ pieces, songs, symphonic poems as well as pop and dance music.[2]

Mell made at least two recordings: an LP titled Mell (1971) and Mermaid, an EP (1977), with the songs "Avsked" and "Hav". Here the artist's name is given simply as Maria Mell.[2][4]

Gertrud Maria Mell died on 30 June 2016.[1]
